Jasika Nicole Instagram – This has been in heavy rotation this summer, which was an unexpected surprise. I thought it might be too dressed up to wear casually but I was wrong- it’s surprisingly comfortable and feels like a regular sundress, although it’s clearly anything but. I was inspired to make this after I saw @whatkatiewears and @ravelout ‘s versions. The pattern is the #oonadress by @vikisews, a Russian pattern company. The instructions were surprisingly great as I’ve found that a lot of translated instructions can be a bit sparse or lacking. But these came with good pics, detailed instructions and was easy to follow, which was important considering the unique construction. It came together pretty quickly by using facings to create tunnels for all the elastic and the drawstring. My only suggestion would be to keep as many of your elastic casings open on one end as possible til most of the dress is constructed, then try it on to make sure the elastic lengths are comfortable for you; I had to shorten my neck elastic by several inches in order for it to feel secure. Others who made this dress ended up having to stitch the center up a couple of inches so they wouldn’t feel too exposed which is a great fix, but my B cups are able to feel totally fine in such a low cut. Someone once told me they were “blessed by the booby gods” cause they were so well endowed, and it really changed my perspective on my own relationship with my body because I also think I was blessed by the booby gods, but for the opposite reason 😂despite what uber self conscious high school Jasika thought was desirable in the 90’s, it turns out that I adore my small boobs! They are so easy to manage! I could run for an hour without a bra and not hurt! I can go braless in a t shirt and no one will even notice. I can wear inexpensive bras and still feel supported! Moral of the story is, a true blessing is one that brings you peace, whatever that may look like. Sincerely,
